You kidding man? Kyle Hotz is a perfect artst for this mini series, His latest work was Epilogue and it was filed with gore, horror, and dark style. That's what The Hood is all about, Darl and Devious. He as to be my fav out of the Cabal. Him and Madame Masque make a great couple too.

Looks great from the preview and the art is good enough.

Seriously, since the Hood has gotten all these guys together, have they pulled off one job successfully or without him having to bail them out? Come on, give these guys some credit...they are not all schmucks, there are some hardcore villians in the mix there like the Wrecking Crew and Mr. Hyde.Then again, you learn in business school that if one company is making doing badly and they merge ...
